DiBella Concedes!

The Asbury Park Press is reporting that Joe DiBella has conceded the Freeholder nomination to Andrew Lucas.

"With time for reflection and good advice from my wife, I have come to the conclusion that it is in the best interest of the party to accept the outcome of the second ballot, in spite of the circumstances,'' DiBella said in a prepared statement today.

Congratulations goes out to Joe DiBella for his unselfish act for the good of our party and the good of our county.

One can imagine the emotional roller coaster the last few months must have been for Joe, having come so close twice. Today's announcement is an indication of Joe's maturity and statesmanship.

This blogger thanks you and your family. I urge you to do a great job as Mayor in Howell and to quiet your critics. And I hope your son's Little League team wins the championship.

THANK YOU JOE

That was a very gracious move on Joe's part. There will be other opportunities for him in the future.

Did you check out "Ronald Reagan's" blogs? Both are total blanks now.

I noticed that, I wonder if the profile name "Ronald Reagan" will be available anytime soon.
